5. Is anyone aware if DU has been asked not to publish story excerpts.....

.....from any sites? :shrug: :evilgrin:

I don't believe that I've ever heard anything about it here. :toast: :)

6. Funny

I wonder what I have to do to keep my stuff from getting posted there? Hmmm, I see a campaign urging progressive sites and outlets to add their names to that list!

7. the dumbasses STILL post full articles regularly

(rhetorical question)

"Don't have the financial wherewithal to go to court again. Have simply complied with their wishes"
